Winston Rowntree's SUBNORMALITY

Wednesday, April 29, 2009


Winston Rowntree's webcomic Subnormality is sometimes hilarious, sometimes creepy and sometimes rather sad, but it's almost always insightful and sometimes it's just plain brilliant. Rowntree's comics feature time travel, alternate dimensions, horrible monsters, urban despair, lots and lots of words, and some truly mouth-wateringly lovely young ladies. Most of his strips stand on their own, but if you read enough of them you do see some recurring characters, like his hapless job-seeker with the ever-changing hair color, and his improbably adorable Sphinx.


And as good as he is, he just keeps getting better. He recently returned after a hiatus that lasted most of April, so now's a good time to get on board.

Hi, Schnalle. Sorry, I can't figure out how to get alerts mailed to me when people post comments, so I didn't see your comment until just now. I'd agree that Subnormality is just amazing... But I think I'd give the slight edge to Hitmen for Destiny. It's certainly not as pretty to look at, but the writing is just superb week in and week out, that guy never has an off day.
